I found my old thumper

If it's not the same car it's built by the same. The only dif.,  is this pic has a Hemi, and we had a 427 GM.

I remember it  like yesterday...I had a 11.32 1968 GTO, my buddy had a 11.20 5-7 chev.

His uncle Carrol Shelby said here ya go, ....we spent a year building it, always arguing who was going to drive it.
Then after we drove it, we argued who was not going to drive it.

I was firm it wasn't going to be me, John was just as firm it wasn't going to be him...

We sold the car at just below a loss.

That thing looks like abject terror on wheels. I think they simply use defibulators to get your blood pumping now. You should tell more of the story, its gotta be interesting.

Um...where are the blower straps? Vintage photo, I hope.

Um...where are the blower straps? Vintage photo, I hope.

From the looks of that photo i would say the picture was taken in the mid 1970's  hence no blower straps.
